Multi- Scalar Governance Sixteen years following Mozambique’s independence in 1975 and civil war (1975-1992), the government of Mozambique began to decentralize. The Minister of State Administration pushed for greater citizen involvement at local levels of government. Expanding citizen engagement led to the question of what role traditional leaders, or chiefs who wield strong community influence, would play in local governance.1 Last year, President Filipe Nyusi announced plans to change the constitution and to give political parties more power in the provinces. The Ministry of State Administration and Public Administration are also progressively implementing a decentralization process aimed at transferring the central government’s political and financial responsibilities to municipalities (Laws 2/97, 7-10/97, and 11/97).2 An elected Municipal Council (composed of a Mayor, a Municipal Councilor, and 12 Municipal Directorates) and Municipal Assembly are the main governing bodies of Maputo.

It is promoted by governments and international development organizations as a vehicle for achieving development, poverty reduction and economic growth. However, tourism has resulted in many unwanted economic, social, cultural and environmental consequences for local communities. Through a case study conducted in Ponta do Ouro, Southern Mozambique, this research sought to investigate the contribution of tourism to coastal livelihoods. The research assessed the extent to which tourism contributes to livelihoods of coastal communities of Ponta do Ouro, and their perception of benefits and negative impacts associated with tourism.

  • Assessment of Soil Loss to Vulnerability in the Boane District in Mozambique
    DOI: 10.14393/SN-v32-2020-46916 Received: 06 February 2019|Accepted: 06 February 2020 Assessment of soil loss to vulnerability in the Boane District in Mozambique Euclides Délio Matule1 Lucrêncio Silvestre Macarringue1,2 Keywords Abstract Boane The soil lost vulnerability study of the landscape units constitutes one of the Stability mechanisms for the design of sustainable land use and cover and natural Geoprocessing resources. Therefore, this research aimed to evaluate the soil loss vulnerability Soil Loss in the Boane district in 2018. The materials used included OLI Landsat 8 and ASTER GDTM V2 images, through which we generated land use and cover and slope maps respectively, soils, lithology, and precipitation databases available in CENACARTA. This data was processed in a GIS environment. The results showed that 53.3% of the district had median stability, 34.7% moderately vulnerable, 11.4% moderately stable, 0.6% stable and 0% vulnerable. These results indicate a favorable situation, but not comfortable at the short term, due to the accelerated rhythm of urbanization and its consequences to the environment that is seen in the last decades, joined to the lack or non- implementation of the main planning plans, that can change this situation in short term. 1Instituto de Formação em Administração de Terras e Cartografia, Matola, Moçambique.

  • Simbimba Ndlela 1982] 1
    [Simbimba Ndlela 1982] 1 STILL TO ADD LEFT-OUT PAGES (A2) SIMBIMBA NDLELA - SYNOPSIS (PB) Editor's note We have reproduced in this volume two interviews conducted with Simbimba Ndlela. The first was conducted at the behest of the late Swazi King, Sobhuza II. The second interview, conducted over two days, some months apart was conducted by Carolyn Hamilton. Simbimba Ndlela's narrative poses tremendous difficulties for the first time reader, but in the opinion of the editors is especially rich in historical detail. In particular, Simbimba Ndlela's narrative is marked by a distinctive narrative style. We have retained his style of narrative at the expense of facilitating a reading of the text. To help the reader, we have provided an especially long synopsis. This interview contains information not previously known to the others present at the interview, who include in their number three of the most knowledgeable about Swazi history. It is also interesting among other things because of disputes between the interviewers and the interviewee over the burial sites of early Swazi kings and the status of Ndvungunye, the father of Somhlolo. The chronological beginning of Simbimba's account is the reign of King Mswati. Mswati ruled at Mtomazi at Bhaca in Mzimkhulu at the place of the Mpondo people. The location of these places are not made clear in the interview, but they have southern connotations and they might be located in the Matubatuba region. The home of Ludvonga's chief wife, and is close to the site of Ntjumbili ngwelele. After being warned that a Zulu (in this case probably an Ndwandwe king) was about to force Mswati to teach him the secrets of the incwala, Mswati fled, skirting the Lubombo mountains until he reached Mavaneni in the area of Ngogweni at Mangwaneni probably on the eastern [re: illegible] of the Phongolo River in the vicinity of Kosi Bay.
